October 22, 2015... Richmond and Carlton in a stand-off over Chris Yarran.
The Hawks could trade 15 and 18 to Richmond for 12 and 19, enabling Richmond to hand over either pick to Carlton for Yarran.
Richmond have refused to budge on Carlton's demand for pick 12 and have said they are prepared to let the 2pm Thursday deadline pass without securing Yarran if the Blues do not accept their offer of pick 19. Carlton have maintained Yarran is worth a first-round draft pick – not pick 19 – and think Richmond's pick 12 is fair.
Yarran is on close to $500,000 next year, but is prepared to move to Richmond for a lower sum and will become a restricted free agent at the end of next year.
At that time – were he to leave the Blues for Richmond on the terms of the current contract offer – the free agency compensation would be most likely an end-of-second-round draft pick.
